Drawing People

A complete course in drawing, Drawing People focuses on the clothed person as opposed to the nude figure. Clothing can be a valuable device for giving the people you draw movement, expression and vitality. The way a person is dressed enhances character, describes form, and even adds believability to their mood, whether relaxed, dejected, determined or proud. In this book, you’ll learn how to dress your figures from head to toe, in a convincing way that portrays the story you want to tell. Award winning artist Barbara Bradley provides all the information you need to render clothed figures with energy, detail and control. These reliable, proven drawing techniques will add a natural feel to your art, resulting in figures that look as though they could walk, run or dance right off the page. 176 pages.
